This book is a collection of essays written by a variety of scholars from a number of fields, rather than a single, unified work. In their introduction, the editors Grant and Wilson suggest that, "Arguably, covenant is the single most significant theme in the whole of the Scriptures and it is the very breadth and magnitude of this biblical thread that makes possible the diversity of approach and discussion found in the pages that follow." (p.12) Thus, the reader is treated to an "eclectic" array of discussions concerning covenant through the lenses of mission, speech act theory, NT studies, theology, and philosophy. - Tim Davy.
